I'm pretty sure it works a lot better from the last time I used it. They recalled a lot of the supplies. It just depends on the person. The pump had me in the hospital a lot I personally prefer the insulin pen
Well due to a recent hospital stay I meet my deductible early this year pump cost me 150$ and supplies are covered 100% for rest of year I was surprised as we have express scrips and they changed all my meds this year not covering this but will cover that so when Medtronic came back with that info I was crazy happy they told me with are meds ins next year till we meet deductible will be around 130$ a month that includes insulin just script copays
I'm starting Medtronic pump tomorrow is my class Everyone ive talked too loves it and everything I've researched and read it works really well at controlling bg levels and I'm excited to go from six+ shots a day to one every three days ups will deliver my pump today and class and training tomorrow with Medtronic staff and my endo I'm looking forward to it in couple days I'll post my thoughts on it but good luck with your pump
Thank you for your reply I am also excited Just waiting to see what supplies will cost monthly . I also have a Medtronic's Pump. I have Humana Hmo. plus
